Our districtwide Poet Laureates from all five schools gathered at Sewanhaka High School for an inspiring poetry workshop with Dr. Otton on Oct. 15. They collaborated on exciting plans for the upcoming year of districtwide poetry contests and events. Their main goal is to celebrate student voice and the power of poetry across our district.
